Corvette
A corvette is a small, maneuverable, lightly armed warship designed to take out small crafts. This allows you to use it for scouting when Scout Ships are unavailable. They are also useful as fast strike ships, which can be very effective at hitting Recyclers. Paired with Destroyers they can form a strong force against cruisers and lower. Due to their small size, they are also excellent to spy out a target's tech levels without being detected by scanners.How to counter: Capital ships.
